The discussion explores elder welfare laws, healthcare access, the expanding silver economy, and the erosion of traditional family support systems. Framed through the Samaaj–Sarkaar–Bazaar lens, this conversation asks a critical question: how do we ensure that longer lives also mean lives lived with dignity?

Nuclear fusion powers the sun and the stars and promises limitless, clean energy for the future. Unlike fission, which splits atoms, fusion combines hydrogen isotopes to release massive amounts of energy.

In his latest paper, Sridhar Krishna explains how breakthroughs in achieving net energy gain and sustaining plasma are making commercial fusion more feasible than ever. He also looks at how AI’s energy demands are drawing private companies into a space once dominated by governments and international labs.
